Shot at Love

Adam:

 

I came to Fort Lauderdale to rebuild my relationship with my son, not to fall for his new mother-in-law. Yet, Maria has a way of making me forget all the reasons why I shouldn't.


She's everything I thought I lost forever after my wife's passing. But our families are not on board with us being together, and sneaking around isn't my style.


I need to show her I’m all in. 


Maria: 


After my husband’s sudden heart attack, I never imagined I’d love again. Until, an ex-biker with striking blue eyes and in desperate need of a haircut comes strutting into our family restaurant, making my heart beat a little faster.


But Adam is my daughter's new father-in-law, and off limits. None of my children would approve of us dating. Hooking up is out of the question and marriage… well that’s not possible.


Or is it?
